Paramount Pictures, together with media agency MEC, were expected to present a session with the “Star Trek” actors at 10 a.m. Wednesday.

But the executives and the cast members were too shaken to go on.

“All of us are deeply saddened by the loss of our friend Anton Yelchin,” the studio and the agency said in a statement. “Out of respect, we are withdrawing our participation in the previously announced ‘Star Trek Beyond’ event at Cannes Lions this week.”

The actors were expected to discuss the topic of retelling of the “Star Trek” story for the big screen. The movie opens July 22.
